UNCLE TUPELO - FLATNESS Lyrics

Beer makes you wearyBut you need something to get alongYou stare at the flatnessBeside the dark homeThey'll not hear you whisperThis isn't where it endsYour hand holds the bottleThat has become your last and only friendI've lost all hopeThere's hope for youIf not just in the possibilityOf a better next dayIf not just in the simple factThere's no other wayYou lie on that couchAnd try to dream once moreBut your only goal is to sleepUntil the news is overAnd outside the leaves are all changingBut you drink to forgetSomeone you once metStands blocking the bright orange sunsetI've lost all hopeThere's hope for youIf not just in the possibilityOf a better next dayIf not just in the simple factThere's no other waySo open up those curtainsAnd drink up the daylightJust by the brightnessOpen your doors wide'Cause things don't get betterBut some people doThere's darkness in this lifeBut the brighter side we also may viewThere's darkness in this lifeBut the brighter side we also may view
